That's funny. When I was in Gagetown in 1980, I was attached with C squadron. The leopards were still on warranty, and down by the rail-head near base supply were about 10 Centurions. They were rumored to be heading to Switzerland to be made into gun emplacements but I think they ended up in Isreal? There were also two Cents and two ferrets parked down Shirley road waiting to go for targets.



I scrounged a manual out of one of the cents at that rail-head. Usually when I hold onto a manual I eventually end up with an example of that vehicle in the stable. Fortunately that did not happen this time.
